What is it that you want to be
Tell me who you are
What is it you’re afraid of
Now that we’ve come this far?
I think that it matters
Not to me but to you
Just make sure to find out one day
Make sure that you do

And when all things else fail you
Remember my words
Find out all the answers
Trust me
I know that hurts

What if it was all worthless
Nought but lies and conceit
What else is there to cling to
When you suffer defeat

Time slowly ticks away
Whilst souls will fade to grey
And all hope must yield to sorrow spawned
At the dawn of each new day

Is man no more than this
Go touch the emptiness
Emptiness

What will you turn to
When despair falls gently like the rain

With a mouth full of dust
Screaming your own name
With a limp hand you thrust
A dagger home for shame
Emptiness

With a mouth full of dust
Mumbling your own name
By the soothing hands of time
It soon feels all the same

Time slowly ticks away
Whilst souls will fade to grey
And all hope must yield to emptiness
At the dawn of each new day

If this is what’s essentially you
Does it fulfill you at all
And what is it you’re afraid of
Now that it’s come this far?
I think that it matters
What ever you do
Just make sure to find out one day
Make sure that you do

Track Name: Les Fleurs Du Mal

- Les Fleurs Du Mal -

There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance,
And there’s pansies, that’s for thought
The one seems inappropriate,
The other comes to naught

There’s fennel for me and columbines
A shiver down my spine
How bittersweet such laurels seem
To such a black soul as mine

Rues and daisies make up my crown
With withered violets wrought,
A shiver down my cursed spine
By mine own conscience caught

Far from the truth
You wouldn’t believe this at all.
Forbidden fruit flavoured walls cave in.

Trust me on that
I never know when it’s enough.
I’ll never know why I did that.

Just go ahead
Switch off. Switch on. Repeat.
We’ll all go down in a blur.

Thirst-stained hands
Will never O never be clean.
The serpent smiles as I sin.

Look not so pale – I tell you yet again
What’s done cannot be undone
Yet I do repent me of my sins
Once more it’s the foul fiend that wins

Flowers picked for our demise
Nights are pierced by midlife cries

I’m not so sure about myself anymore
The ice is thin, they say, how right they are
And here I am, I’ve put on weight, and I am
Just not so sure about myself anymore

I’m not so sure about myself anymore / I wish I knew… I wish I knew
A bunch of flowers and a room without a door
I should have known, it’s not like it never happened before

Twisting the knife slowly
Picking flowers for my own grave

I’m not so sure about myself anymore
That much I know.

Track Name: Deliverance

- Deliverance -

It seems so long to me that I / Last felt I knew where I was going
My heart’s too full of black bitterness / To catch the nearest way

With all my soul did I stray from
A path I knew would lead me where
I would find more than I could take
And have to give more than I could bear

So I gathered all those moments of no value to my soul
The night comes with a fever that I know can be controlled
No more

I lay awake, a thousand and one nights
In fear of death, and a thousand more besides
Begging for deliverance but avoiding what I know has to be done
I lay awake, a thousand and one nights
Afraid to live and strengthen my demise
Begging for deliverance but avoiding what I know has to be done

Come, heal my wound, it hurts so bad / But not enough, not nearly enough

Will my despair suffice, I do not know
I cannot take it any more
Than you
Will you let me go

The voice of love, stronger by far
Than he who whispers the promise of damnation to mine ear:
You need not fear / Salvation those will taste that turn around
Unchain your heart / Deliverance is near

Please god, I can not let go

A night that shall no morrow see has come my way at last
And yet I know a streak of light in deepest night may dawn
Upon us all

Track Name: Blindfolded

- Blindfolded -

War, apocalyptic slaughter is what we’re heading for
Our moribund existence into chaos we unfold
On the eve of brutal rampage we hold our breath
Words unspoken, fatal token of our assent to death

Whilst on fields of man’s extinction our future’s spent
With cruel sarcasm Mars and Venus conceive Lent
To be born to spread frustration, seed of lies
Willingly with bloodstained hands we rock the cradle of demise

Seasons coming for the last time
Cellars plundered before dawn
Say your prayer, join the frontline
Sell your soul and serve as pawn

Called by everburning lusts, yield to which at times we must
With eyes set firmly upon the end all better judgement we transcend

Hoping for the best we draw our swords
Judge and hangman be in Justice’s rightful blindfold clothed

How’s it going to end?

Track Name: The Blood Of Sleep

- The Blood Of Sleep -

The time is nigh the storm is near
A death-knell ringing in my ear
The blood of sleep is on our hands
We turn to stone and make amends
